LY3372689 is a drug candidate molecule under investigation to treat Alzheimer's disease. It targets the enzyme O-GlcNAcase.[1] Its result is to reduce formation of tau protein tangles.
A molecule containing radioactive fluorine was used with a PET scan to show that LY3372689 binds in the human brain.[2]
Eli Lilly and Company is recruiting subjects for a clinical trial.[3] Some hospitals in Australia: St Vincent's Hospital, Sydney Hornsby Ku-Ring-Gai Hospital, The Prince Charles Hospital, The Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Adelaide, Box Hill Hospital, and Delmont Private Hospital are involved.[4] Results of the trial are expected by June 2024.[5]
Chemical
[edit]The molecule contains three rings: thiazole, piperidine and oxadiazole. Other functional groups included are an ether, acetamide, and a fluoride.[6]
